About our corporate paella catering in Huntercombe
Food at work events can easily exclude people. Separate pans mean everyone eats the same kind of meal. We’re often asked to cater team-building events and summer staff parties, with vegan and vegetarian paella, paella lunches and canapé tapas.
Teams near Huntercombe frequently go for an outdoor lunch or summer party. Tell us about the site and access. Everything is cooked from scratch at your work event, never made in advance and reheated.

What happens on the day
Once the rice is in, we don’t stir it. That is how the grains cook evenly and the toasted base, the socarrat, forms. The smell usually draws people over. After-work summer parties in Huntercombe have daylight until about 9:25pm in late June and 7:05pm in late September; winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, need lit cooking and serving areas.
- You tell us the date, venue, numbers, timings and dietary needs.
- You get a menu, a quote and any documents the venue asks for.
- We agree access, parking and set-up times with you or the venue.
- On the day we set up, cook live and serve at the agreed time.
- We pack down and leave the space tidy.
Before we arrive
- Confirm the venue is happy with live cooking

Catering for every guest
Few dishes handle mixed diets as well as paella, because each paella is cooked in its own pan. Here are a few tips for planning:
- Include soft drinks and water as well as alcohol
- Collect dietary needs when people sign up
- Think about shade and seating
- Share the timings for food
Staff can serve canapés or bowl food during a reception.
Churros or Spanish desserts to finish.
Your questions about corporate paella catering in Huntercombe
Which station should guests use for Huntercombe?
Burnham station, in Huntercombe itself.
Can you cook in Haymill Valley?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Check with them, and we will provide our paperwork.
Can we pay by invoice?
Tell us what your finance team needs, and we will talk you through it.
Can you cook at our office?

Of course. A simple chicken paella is generally popular with children. Tell us how many are coming.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
We can, if you tell us in advance. Rice is naturally gluten-free, but stock and some ingredients may not be, so we cook a gluten-free paella separately.
